Glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) is a peptide hormone derived from amino acids and produced in the L-cells of the intestinal epithelial endocrine. This hormone is employed in the treatment of diseases such as diabetes and obesity.
The primary product types of glucagon-such as peptide 1 include Trulicity, Ozempic, Victoza, Rybelsus, and others. Trulicity, a prescription medicine administered through injection, is designed to enhance blood sugar levels. Various routes of administration, including oral, parenteral, and others, are utilized in settings such as hospitals, specialty clinics, and more.
Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report's Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.
The escalating U.S. tariffs and rising trade tensions in spring 2025 are expected to significantly affect the chemicals sector, which is facing a disproportionate impact-particularly from tariffs on petrochemicals and intermediates, where affordable domestic alternatives are limited. Specialty chemical producers, who rely heavily on Chinese raw materials, are encountering production disruptions. Meanwhile, fertilizer manufacturers are seeing their profit margins squeezed due to tariffs on phosphate imports. In response, companies are increasing investments in R&D for bio-based alternatives, forming procurement alliances to strengthen purchasing power, and relocating production to tariff-neutral countries like Saudi Arabia.
The glucagon-such as peptide 1 market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides glucagon-such as peptide 1 market statistics, including glucagon-such as peptide 1 industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a glucagon-such as peptide 1 market share, detailed glucagon-such as peptide 1 market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the glucagon-such as peptide 1 industry. This glucagon-such as peptide 1 market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.
The glucagon-like peptide 1 market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $20.88 billion in 2024 to $22.06 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.7%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to rising prevalence of diabetes, focus on improved diabetes management, patient preference for injectable therapies, clinical efficacy and safety profiles, advancements in diabetes research.
The glucagon-like peptide 1 market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $30.5 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.4%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to emergence of oral glp-1 therapies, focus on personalized medicine, integration in diabetes treatment algorithms, patient-centric approaches in healthcare. Major trends in the forecast period include market expansion in emerging economies, regulatory approvals for new formulations, focus on personalized medicine, patient education and awareness programs, competitive landscape dynamics.
The forecast of 8.4% growth over the next five years reflects a modest reduction of 0.3% from the previous estimate for this market.This reduction is primarily due to the impact of tariffs between the US and other countries. This is likely to directly affect the US by raising diabetes treatment costs, as tariffs on peptide APIs from Denmark and Switzerland increase pharmaceutical production expenses.The effect will also be felt more widely due to reciprocal tariffs and the negative effect on the global economy and trade due to increased trade tensions and restrictions.
The global glucagon-such as peptide 1 market is anticipated to experience growth due to the rising prevalence of diabetes. Diabetes, characterized by elevated blood sugar levels, is a condition that glucagon-such as peptide 1 medications address, particularly in the context of type 2 diabetes, offering potential benefits such as weight loss and improved blood sugar control. As of January 2022, global diabetes prevalence in individuals aged 20-79 was estimated at 10.5% (536.6 million people), with a projected increase to 12.2% (783.2 million) by 2045, according to the National Library of Medicine. Consequently, the escalating prevalence of diabetes is expected to be a driving force for the glucagon-such as peptide 1 market.
The growth of the glucagon-such as peptide 1 (GLP-1) market is further expected to be fueled by an increasing emphasis on personalized medicine. Personalized medicine involves tailoring prevention, detection, or treatment approaches based on an individual's genetic or protein-related information. This approach enables the customization of GLP-1 formulations and dosages according to the specific needs and preferences of each patient. In 2022, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved 12 personalized medicines, constituting approximately 34% of all newly approved therapeutic molecular entities, as reported by the Personalized Medicine Coalition. Thus, the growing emphasis on personalized medicine serves as a catalyst for the glucagon-such as peptide 1 (GLP-1) market's expansion.
Technological innovations are emerging as a prominent trend in the global glucagon-such as peptide 1 market. Major companies within the market are introducing novel technologies to maintain their competitive positions. For example, Novo Nordisk A/S, a pharmaceutical company based in Denmark, has launched Wegovy, a groundbreaking once-weekly glucagon-such as peptide 1 therapy designed for weight management. Successfully completing the STEP Phase 3a clinical trial program, Wegovy demonstrated a safe and well-tolerated profile, making it an effective option for individuals struggling with obesity to achieve and sustain weight loss.
Leading companies in the glucagon-such as peptide 1 market are strategically focusing on product innovations, such as the development of oral semaglutide, to ensure their continued market presence. Oral semaglutide is a diabetes management medication delivered in pill form and taken orally. Novo Nordisk India, a healthcare company based in India, introduced oral semaglutide in January 2022. This peptide-in-a-pill formulation represents a groundbreaking advancement in diabetes treatment, providing patients with an oral alternative to injections. The innovation addresses challenges related to peptide degradation in the stomach, enhancing both stability and absorption.
In March 2024, Novo Holdings A/S, an investment company based in Denmark, acquired Catalent Inc. for $16.5 billion. This acquisition is intended to enhance Novo Holdings' presence in the rapidly growing GLP-1 market by utilizing Catalent's established infrastructure in fill-finish manufacturing. This move aims to increase capacity to meet the rising demand for treatments related to diabetes and weight loss. Catalent Inc. is a biotechnology company located in the United States that specializes in advanced delivery technologies and development solutions for pharmaceuticals.
